The Make Marketing team is currently inactive. Work on the WordPress Showcase remains open to contributions, and marketing amplification requests can be made via GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged by the repository owner. https://github.com/. For those with marketing talents, we currently recommend connecting with the Community team to promote WordPress events or with one of the many other Make teams. For any other ideas or discussions unrelated to these contributing areas, you can use the GitHub discussion area or Make Slack.
My leave and Bridget Willard, co-team rep for Marketing
Hey all, just in case you didn’t see I’ll be out on leave until the end of November, and won’t be checking SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/ so make sure you direct any questions to #marketing in Slack. I’m excited to see what everyone gets accomplished while I’m out! I’m sure it will be great.
I’m sure it comes as no surprise that Bridget Willard @gidgey is being promoted to co-team repTeam Rep A Team Rep is a person who represents the Make WordPress team to the rest of the project, make sure issues are raised and addressed as needed, and coordinates cross-team efforts. for Marketing and primary team rep in my absence. She’s been doing an amazing job and we’re lucky to have her time!
If you’re interested in getting more involved in .org Marketing, there’s always room for more leaders and doers!
Let Bridget know in the comments if you’d like to become more involved on the team so she can chat with you about taking the lead with meetings, notes, wrangling specific subgroups and/or projects. All we ask are consistency in your dedication and thoughtfulness in your communication – give what time you can, regularly, and let others know when you can’t. 🙂
I’ll see you in a few months!
